Woman decapitated in Mexico for web posting

I’m not interested in Shamanism or “magic”. This is pure physical science. More than half of the speakers each year are scientists, doctors and engineers(like me).

Just as early man considered fire to be “magic”, the Shaman feel the same way when they see a glimpse beyond our subjective reality or think in a way that nobody ever has. One of the next big steps for mankind is to finally quantify what this “magic” truly is. I personally know that psychedelic discovery has already been used to develop important inventions we use every day. The day is coming when this will finally go public.

Our senses and processing ability is extremely limited to allow survival in our subjectively limited Newtonian reality. Our brain chemistry is not meant for deeply understanding reality or the hidden non-Newtonian physics around us. For the majority of people, their brain can do no more than simply deal with reality and then die in ignorance once the time comes. This was necessary for primitive man to stay alive but it limits our ability today.

Again, living an entire lifetime at your limited chemical baseline is like driving a car without ever looking under the hood. Everyone is free to do so but only those that objectively look under the hood and get their hands dirty get the opportunity for true understanding.

The backpack carries 2 to 5 fairly large computer books, cell phone charger, lunch, e-reader, calculator, a few packs of CD/DVD with various OS utilities. Something I can readily cart into the building and have at hand all day. On non-work days, I put a tailbag on the bike that is sufficient to carry 3 half gallons of milk and other stuff for grocery runs.

Having some "bumps" on the pegs so you can feel the position is helpful. The dirt style pegs from the DR650SE were short, but the gripping teeth held the bottom of my boot securely. Not really good for "dress" shoes. Floor boards are more suited to that task. I can actually get up on the floor boards of the Roadliner for rough patches of road. That has been necessary a few times in Pocatello.

Your setup on the trike looks very good. Forward controls are probably more comfortable for long legged folks. My two youngest sons are 6 ft 2 1/2 inches with 32" inseams. Definitely candidates for forward controls.

Before I get to play with bike configurations and/or new bikes, I have to track down some contracts that will let me work from my home office in Idaho again. The "on the road" in San Diego approach consumes almost $1500/month of after tax income. That's rent/utilities/commuting/meals above the cost of the home office.

That setup looks pretty comfortable. I found the FXDF put my legs out straight on the forward pegs. Since I sit in front of a computer all day, I almost never sit with my legs stretched out straight. My legs were getting stretched on the back of the thigh and requiring extra support from my stomach muscles to keep my feet from falling off the pegs. Needless to day, I was not a happy camper after 30 miles through heavy traffic in that state. Mid pegs would have made the ride just fine.

That cemetery background was a good spot for the picture. My wife posed on my Roadster in front of a similar grassy park in south Pocatello.

Thanks for the pointers/suggestions. I spend a fair amount of time trolling the local Harley shops. I'll pass along your FR contact info if I happen upon someone would needs some special work done on a bike.

wrought; the forces of evil gather strength, and the forces of good grow smaller.

It is because we let them. We must first and foremost repent, stop living like pleasure is the purposes of our lives, and turn to The LORD in faith. We must be in constant prayer asking Him for guidance as to what, how, where etc. to do to effectively combat the forces of evil. We must get off of our bottoms and become the Christian soldiers God has called us to be. And above all else in The Mighty Name of Jesus we must never give up or give in. Like David against Goliath we must believe in the power of The Living God to overcome evil no matter how pervasive to our earthly senses it seems to be.

Zec 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This [is] the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].

This verse was originally written concerning Israel herself but the principal of the verse can also be applied to our Country, as how and to what degree I am not sure, but I am sure that applies to us also.

2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Here is a verse about our armour in it's bigger context:

Eph 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

Eph 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

Eph 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

Eph 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

May the answer to this important question Jesus asked concerning us be YES!

Luk 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
